It takes much more than words to establish the basis for trust. Mr Mansur’s letter is more an appeal to naivete and ignorance than anything else. There’s too much violence in the name of Islam coming from too many continents to be lulled by soothing words of harmony.
Islam needs to undergo a very significant reformation. Current events indicate the exact opposite is happening. There’s no place for theocracy in the west.
So when I read Mr. Mansur’s words, the overriding thought running through my mind is ‘Words are cheap – you need to walk the talk’. I’ll say a prayer for both the ‘infidel’ and muslim innocents that will have their lives extinguished in the name of Allah before today is done.
